Bare trees line Main Street in Canon City, Colorado. Brick and frame commercial buildings with storefronts, gable and mansard roofed dwellings span the scene. Signs read: "Wet Mountain Valley Hay" "Livery Durham" and "Effie Ellsler." Scene includes the brick Methodist Church, a belfry, and a metal stovepipe with a wind-vane topping it. The lime kiln smokestack at the State Penitentiary is in the distance.
